“As for Proud Boys, I think its strange that its being run by an Afro-Cuban,and has members of different races yet its being called a white nationalist group.”

Probably because of things like this: https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1337930976597577730

As you can see in the clip, a few guys do the Nazi Salute.

I don’t know about you, but I think that no matter if you’re on the left or right, we should all work together to gun down every single Nazi in this country. Great men from this country fought a war against this. We shouldn’t let Nazism rise up again.

Let me address some of the things in your comment as a black dude myself.

“So many black people these days are tired of blm bunching them together with criminals who they share nothing with except the pigment in their skin.”

This is somewhat true. Most black people don’t enjoy these generalizations. I believe that the BLM movement is attempting to highlight the fact that black people commit a lot more crime than the norm, and that makes them feel uncomfortable. It’s a very sad fact, though.

“And the low expectations-racism that comes with that. Its kinda funny that BLM/AFA/Woke folk actually thrills on the biggest stereotype ever; that black people in general shares interests with criminals being arrested or spending time inside the prison walls”

I think I see what you’re saying here. People are saying that “Black people cannot succeed because of their skin color.” This is a statement that would take a block of text to explain XD.

The shortened version is this: Poor people in America tend to stay poor. This is a result of the system in America and how this country works. Black people, on average, are more likely to be poor because of Jim Crow and the war on drugs. All this meaning that black people are, one average, less likely to succeed.

“These organizations claims to represent ´'people of color' in general, but they always focuses on individuals with criminal lifestyles that get into problem with police.”

Easy one. Since the beginning of the Civil Rights movement, the relationship between Black people and the police is usually the focus. Remember Selma? That’s what gets people riled up to march.

Now, these orgs use the police to get people riled up again. It gets people mad to see the state kill someone unjustly like that. Those kinds of things make people remember the 60s.

The people who spat at little black girls going to integrated schools are still alive today. Seeing the police kill Floyd made them remember those times. They don’t want to live through another Civil Rights Movement. That’s why they March.

Hope this cleared some things up!

I disagree. So far, I haven’t found it a stereotype that some white dude gets something explained to someone who isn’t white. In fact, I haven’t seen that in a commercial so far.

Obviously there are more POC in commercials than ever before. We live in different times. I think the scenario you described is innocent, and if it was the other way ‘round, it would still be a simple commercial.
